[net.auto] Truck Tire Swap

ix1037@sdccs6.UUCP (03/01/84)

I own a 1983 Mitsubishi 4WD truck with the stock G78-15 tires.  I am
interested in any information that anyone might have on mounting larger
tires on the truck to get slightly better ground clearance and flotation
on soft sand. I am particularily interested in keeping modifications to
a minimum as I am not after the high lift look. The Dodge Ram 50 4WD is
the same as my truck so anyone who has put larger tires on one of these
could supply useful information. 

I have the turbo diesel in this truck and I am very happy with the 
performance that it provides. Overall the fit and finish on this truck
is very good and I am quite satisfied with it even after 11,000 miles.

Please mail responses.  Thanks in advance.
